Hi all just a newby here, thought I'd share a coin I found with me whites sst at a old no longer used train station that was built in the 1900s.

Yer 2 metres after getting the detector out bam there it was but not a single thing after that one.

Well today I found some info it was more a advertisement for a company in little Collins st was made around 1910, for such a old coin it's held its shape beautifully

Nice find, on Trove there is a mention that in 1936 the company merged with another from Sydney, and had been trading for 16 years. So the age of the token could fall anywhere from 1920 to 1936.

I also got info of my grandfather that a bullet I found along the coast is pre world war 2, has markings from being fired to
